Recenzii
‘… a valuable addition to the literature on Britain’s world-power century. Its twin themes are the almost infinite complexities of Britain’s accumulated commitments as a global power, and the advantages conferred by its (and especially London’s) role as the hub of global communications for much of the nineteenth century and a good part of the twentieth.’ John Darwin, The English Historical Review
